parlor tricks

“A parlor trick is a simple magic trick intended to be performed with few props for a small audience.”
This is a rough cut of my favorite encounter with a Blue Heron this year and had planned to match up with the perfect cloud for a post on the winter solstice my favorite part of the year when the light begins to return for longer days.

Probably my last post of the year, our decade old tower PC has been going blue screen and today couldn’t get beyond, so saving all my stuff in safemode and may try to reformat this model-t as BigK has been calling it. Gold- plated problems, etc, I’m still in a cheerful mood however!

Safe-mode doesn’t work, pretty sure I have worn out the hard drive. It hasn’t been as though I have jumped it through hoops the past years.

I got by “Stir Crazy” yesterday morning and saw your new prints and got a photo of Swallowtail from our Hawksbill hike.

I’m sure you will notice a slight defect in the border of the big print. Try not to let it bother you… most people will not see it, and your wonderful image is not affected by the little ghost line in the border.

Printing a screen projected image reminds me of “slides” back in the day. The print was always different from how the image looked projected. Haven’t printed enough to really know? The Heron seems to look more baroque in your print which I enjoy. Each process appears to change what is intended so I have tried to relax more about. Thanks again!
